A good place for children to try their hand at fishing is at the pier between Baby Beach and the Ocean Institute in the west marina.

Also, Dana Wharf at the East Marina has a tackle shop for your fishing needs. In addition, they offer a free kid's fishing clinic on Sundays from 12:00 to 12:30. This is held at the dock and the fun, friendly captains teach the kids the basics of learning how to fish, such as casting, tying knots and hooking bait. Prizes are given away as well.

See more great fishing opportunities for kids at Dana Wharf kids club.

After the clinic, why not bring the kids on their Half Day Sportfishing Trip?
